Age doesn't matter.
Here’s the latest in my Style Tips for the sandal lovers among you. You can still wear your sandals even though summer is over. You may already know this, but I hope that my examples will give you more ideas for shoe options. A girl always needs a wide array of shoes to choose from when adding the finishing touches to her outfits! Age doesn’t matter. ;D
Here is the tip:
With crisp fall temperatures upon us, it’s time to pull out your plaids, sweaters, jackets, and even turtlenecks. Clothes made from tweed, leather and velvet are coming back into rotation as well. Blazers are useful as jackets to keep the chill off when it’s not cold enough for coats yet. When you’re going places in the Fall, this post tips you off to the elements of style that can help you get classy quick!
This is a diary of the healthy lifestyle goals that my son, Chris, and I are making together each month. Since it takes 21-30 days to develop a new habit, making a goal for the month ahead is an effective strategy.
The buddy system is one of the main ways to get motivated. I’ve always found that if I say out loud to someone what I plan on doing, I’m more likely to do it. Because if I say I will, I feel responsible to follow through.
Age doesn’t matter. It’s never too late. You can always make progress and even reverse the signs of aging!
In an attempt to alleviate stress, Chris’s goal last month was to start taking Olly Goodbye Stress supplements, exercise as much as possible, add yoga to his exercise routine, and get away for mini vacations on weekends.
My goal last month was to use my pedometer to measure my walks. I also wanted to experiment with Health for iPhone by carrying my phone in my purse, a hip pouch or maybe even an armband…and still finish up the summer with weekly outdoor swimming.
Here’s how we did:
“Wishing to be younger or older is a denial of the joys that have been and the joys yet to be, as well as the beauty of your life in the present.” — from “Enjoying Your Age” by Madisyn Taylor at the Daily OM
Age doesn’t matter. Why? Because it’s the present moment right now that matters. Who you are right now is special. What’s special about where you are right now in life? Think about what you appreciate about the age you are right now, and please let us know by leaving a comment below this blog post! And I mean everybody, no matter your age. Thank you for being you!
From the beginning of autumn when it’s still sunny and warm ’til the end of the season when it may even snow, the feeling of fall is in the colors of the earth and the trees. So in the spirit of autumn leaves falling, if we surround ourselves in the changing colors that we see around us we feel in sync with nature. Age doesn’t matter. These colors are a gift to us from our Mother Earth.
Even if the weather is still hot, you can wear your lightweight, cool summer clothes in fall hues, such as: orange, red, rust, mustard yellow, navy, teal, purple, gray and burgundy. The neutral fall colors are the earth tones, such as: chocolate brown, olive green, sage green and camel. These are the colors — from brights to neutrals — to wear all season long.
Navy can take the place of black in your fall outfits. Pantone Color Institute’s executive director Leatrice Eiseman said, “When you move into the classic colors, we know that classics don’t change all that much. Yet we will see or expect a preponderance of certain colors. Sargasso Sea is that staple fall color. Navy is like the new black so to speak. It doesn’t replace black, of course. As navy blues have gained in recent seasons, this is an acknowledgement that this is the mooring of our entire palette.” (For more about Pantone’s A/W 2018 color palettes, read my post “How to Update Your Look with Color in the Fall.”)
